Based on what? They lose all their best players.

honestly think only one. Won’t take much for the TAF and donors to really give JJ the cash he wants and honestly we didn’t miss on everyone we think “sucks” right now. Some of these kids just need reps to get better and they’ll start to shine.

If you luck up and find a Skenes and a Tommy Tanks then it’s one.

Won’t lose many off our pitching staff. Transfer portal. We’ll be back. Same thing happened in 2023 and we won the nattie a year later. Not claiming we’ll win a nattie but we won’t be this bad.

Yep. The whole outfield and Milam are gone. I say 2 years to rebuild.

Looking at the roster, there are a lot of young players. The portal was a huge miss. I trust Jay to prioritize what he needs. The season will end earlier than last year and he can get a head start on the top portal players that fit his scheme.
It is what it is. Disappointed in the season but I won't panic.

I certainly hope we lose a lot off of this pitching staff, along with several position players!

If this season is any indication.... rebuilding seems better than buying.

In this case “Best” is a relative term that may not mean what we hope it does!

Overall, this pitching staff sucks. So how does that improve things.

Overall, yes it does. But there’s some decent pieces to work with. If Evans and Schmidt improve (don’t see how they wouldn’t) they can be a very dangerous 1-2 punch. Then hopefully fill in with portal guys. Not saying it’s a given, but possible. I’d say lineup is more worrisome than pitching.

Really the only players that should be here next year:

Arrambide
Serna
Braun
Harden
Patrick
Ruckert
Pearson



Pitching staff could be really good
Evans
Schmidt
Sheerin or first out pen
Zion
Ricken
Paz


What sucks arse? No Curiel and Milam.
Love Jake Brown, but don’t think he’s a real leader and lacks focus.

What doesn’t suck? Having money to spend on transfers and getting it right this time.
